did you know you can iframe an RSS feed? How neat. A little XSLT goes a long way!
fixes rendering of unrelated faqs + adds linting.
Community Specific Monthly Digests
Based on the matrix bot we'd been using, this should provide a similar experience except in a nice widget that communities can use. This was definitely inspired by @nomadscientist's use case, and how we had to customise the matrix bot to submit a filtered view of stuff just for single-cell, which isn't very generic. Now there are feeds available for every community to use as they like!
We envision this being extremely useful for communities to say "What happened in the last 12 months" and quickly write that up in e.g. grant reports.
By default they're per-month, but individual communities are welcome to request daily/weekly digests, or use the 'topic' feed mentioned below for more timely updates.
Generic Digests
We have a generic monthly/weekly/daily feeds (since a while), these are now also available as widgets
Event / Topic specific feeds
Finally our topic specific 'firehose' type feeds which list every single new thing added (event, tutorial, slides, faqs, workflows). We don't have a use case imagined for these, but if you wanted to keep abreast of changes in a topic as soon as they happen, and don't enjoy the 'digest' experience (these provide a content summary/preview in your reader), then these are an option
Q & A
Q: This doesn't use the GTN theming?
A: No, wanted to try something different given that 1) this will be embedded on non-GTN pages, and 2) the GTN css is quite heavy, this is very reduced just to provide a nice feed view. (Additionally we may overhaul our styles in a while so, the variety is fine.)
